The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 165: Morning Training Session
I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement as I walked toward the hockey locker rooms where Lucas wanted to meet.It had been such a long time since the two of us had trained together. I was excited to work on myself and show him any new abilities I had, and I was equally as excited to see him.After seeing him in person and talking thing through, I felt much more at ease. It seemed that Lucas was having a rough time with everything, just like me.That was all the reassurance that I needed.As I stepped down the hallway, I spotted Lucas already waiting for me wearing his work out clothes.When he heard me approaching, a smile lit up his face. Again, it felt like a weight had been lifted off my chest from just seeing him again."Hey there," I greeted him, my voice bubbling with excitement."Hey there, beautiful," Lucas replied as his blue eyes locked on mine. There was a mischievous glint in his eyes, and I couldn't help but blush under his gaze.Lucas grabbed ahold of my hand as w
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 166: Away From Prying Eyes
The past week is a blur of kisses, laughs, and hard work as Lucas and I meet every morning at Shadow High's training facility.I've felt my mood improved significantly thanks to how much time I've been able to spend with Lucas.He was trying to make sure that I felt special and appreciated every time he saw me. Every morning he'd greet me with a "Hello, beautiful" and wrap me in his arms for a hug.I felt better than I had in weeks since finding out about my wolf and my father's betrayal. Not only mentally and emotionally, but also physically.It seemed impossible to think that a few days of working out would be able to make such a change in my physical strength. Even Lucas mentioned it to me this morning as we finished our session."I can tell your body is craving the need to exert itself." Lucas also noted how toned I looked. "Don't you feel a difference?""My mind feels so clear," I told him. "Ever since we started training this week, I haven't felt any strangeness or overwhelming
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 167: Trying to Change
Lucas's lips met mine, and it seemed like everything else in the world melted away."I know," he agreed, pulling his lips away. "Things have felt so chaotic lately, it's nice to forget and have fun for once."I nodded in agreement, playing with the ripples in the water. "We need to have more moments like this. Just you and me, away from everything else."Just as I was opening up, Lucas pulled another goofy expression."Stop! What are you doing?" I giggled.His grin was infectious. "Trying to earn a smile, or maybe even a laugh. Looks like I won."I tried to pretend like I was unimpressed with his tactics, but the corners of my mouth betrayed me as they lifted into a smile. "You're such a goofball."Right now, it felt like the connection between us was stronger than ever.It was such a contrast to the way I had been feeling. Moments like these reminded me of how much I cared for Lucas.We eventually left the water and started getting dressed again but the cold breeze against my skin ma
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 168: Right or Wrong Thing?
Lucas POVMy father had decided to hold Victoria and I's engagement party at an elegant rooftop restaurant downtown that Victoria's parents owned.Instead of glowing golden chandeliers, the stars in the sky were the highlight, creating a lavish setting.Even though my father said that he wanted this to be a small gathering of people, I'd never seen so many people before in my life.It didn't help that I hardly knew any of them.A sea of well-dressed Alphas mingled, their snotty and obnoxious conversations filled the air. The conversations only surrounded topics of business, status, and connections.It was typical of them to continue to network, even at a more personal event such as this. This was to be expected.As much as I hated events like this and how fake everyone was, I had promised my father that I would be on my best behavior tonight. I didn't want to embarrass him in front of all of these people.It was one thing to do it in the private of our own home, but I didn't want to m
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 169: A Surprise Visitor
That weekend, James had called me over to his house with an urgency in his voice, mentioning something about Victoria.Ever since James had told me about his new relationship with Victoria, I hadn't been able to stop thinking about them.As much as it wasn't any of my business to pry, I wanted to know as much about them as I could. I loved hearing him talk about how he felt about her or what they were getting up to.I didn't have any real girlfriends, so talking to James about relationships was the closest thing I could get. And if he was willing to talk, I was willing to listen.But the tone in his voice on our phone call earlier made me feel a bit nervous. He made it seem like it was something important. I couldn't tell if the news was going to be good or bad.I rushed over to his house which was luckily in the same neighborhood as Grandma Jo's house. Memories of James, Lucas, and I hanging out as children went through my mind as I drove with a fond smile on my face.It helped ease
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 170: The Lies Never End
Who the hell are you?" James asked Edwin, furrowing his brows in confusion.James turned to me and in a low voice he whispered, "Is it just me, or do his eyes look strangely familiar?"My pulse raced as I stared at Lucas's mysterious cousin, his presence sending shivers down my spine. I couldn't shake the eerie feeling that he had some ulterior motive for being here.Fear and panic rushed through my body as I stared at Lucas's cousin. Had he followed me here? Was he actually crazy after all?If he was mentally insane then James and I weren't safe right now. I had no idea what Edwin was capable of, and suddenly, I remembered how he wanted to seek revenge on the Busch family.What if he was going to hurt me? What if I was a part of his plan for revenge?I grabbed onto the side front door, attempting to shut the door in Edwin's face, but he stopped me."Wait!" Edwin shouted, putting his hands up on the door, resisting my efforts to close it. "I know how this looks—""You know how this lo

My emotions continued to surge uncontrollably, making my vision blur as tears streamed down my cheeks.The weight of everything crushed me, making me feel like I couldn't breathe.The one person that I thought I could trust had been lying to me for who knows how long. I didn't know what parts of Lucas were real and what parts were fake.I clung to James, my fingers digging into his back as if he could anchor me to reality.Breathe, Shana. You're fine. You're not going to lose control. You've got this. Just breathe.I squeezed my eyes shut trying to remind myself that I was okay."Shana, you're really worrying me," James said from somewhere above me as he continued to hold me. He started to rub my back gently in a soothing motion. "Are you feeling okay?"I nodded, unable to voice the words. In reality, I wasn't feeling okay - not in the slightest."Don't worry, Shana. You've got me." James's words comforted me, but also made the pain worse.I thought I had Lucas... I thought I had his

Lucas and Victoria were glancing at each other with smiles of happiness.Happy. The two of them were happy."Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" James asked me and I could feel the heat radiating off of his body.They both appeared to be relaxed, holding champagne flutes in hand. My heart did somersaults in my chest, and I could feel James's anger simmering beside me.We were getting more and more upset the longer we stared at them."Maybe we should go," I said to James, suddenly regretting the decision to come here.I didn't know what to make any of this and I didn't know how to handle this situation. We were just going to go up to Lucas and Victoria, and what? Yell at them? Stomp our feet like little kids?What else could we really do?They obviously didn't care about our feelings. Why should we show them our vulnerability and allow them to see how much they've hurt us?"Hell no, Shana, I'm not going anywhere! Not until I get some kind of logical explanation for all this!" James shoute

TWO MONTHS LATERThe sun cast a warm glow over the royal gardens of the Ethereal Palace as Lucas and I stood across from each other, ready to exchange our vows in front of our closest friends and family.Grandma Jo, Victoria, and James stood by our sides, along with King Alex, Professor Black, and Liam. Alex actually insisted on officiating our wedding which took some convincing. Lucas wasn't too keen on the idea."Imagine being able to tell people that the Alpha King was the one who married you two," Alex had said, wiggling his eyebrows at Lucas. "Doesn't that make for a good story?"Lucas rolled his eyes playfully. "Yeah, a story we'd have to explain for the rest of our lives. No thanks."I chuckled, patting Alex on the shoulder. "I think it's a fantastic idea, Your Majesty."Alex grinned, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "I know, isn't it? I do love a good story. Perhaps I'll write a book about it."Lucas shot me a sideways glance, a playful glint in his eye. "I don't know about y

I had the brilliant idea of surprising Lucas will all the new skills I had learned.I'd been so busy study, that I was always too tired when I got home.Showing him the magic I had learned was the best way for me to show him just how much I had grown. With a quick spell and a flick of my wrist, I conjured a portal right in our living room, ready to transport myself back home.As I stepped through the portal, the familiar rush of energy enveloped me, and with a flourish, I emerged in our cozy living room."Lucas?" I called out, unable to contain my excitement.Lucas, who had been engrossed in studying for his upcoming exams, jumped in surprise at the sound of my voice. "Shana? What... How did you... What's going on?"I couldn't help but laugh at his bewildered expression. "Surprise!" I exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.His eyes widened in disbelief as he took in the sight of me standing there, a portal shimmering behind me. "Shana, that's incredible! How did you do that?""I've been

Studying the ancient text of the White Wolf book became my daily ritual.With each passing day, I delved deeper into its pages, absorbing the knowledge and wisdom it held within.When I had told Lucas that the book was finally unlocked, he was ecstatic, and recommended that Professor Black teach me more.Thanks to Lucas, Professor Black had become somewhat of a teacher, helping me decipher the intricate spells and teachings hidden within its ancient script.Even though he couldn't see the pages himself, I practiced rewriting and retracing everything for him to the best of my ability so that he could help me."Professor Black, I need your help with this passage," I'd say, flipping through the pages of the book as he leaned in to listen attentively. Together, we would dissect the ancient text, discussing its implications and applications in our world.His involvement in my studies caused him to visit the palace much more frequently.Alex quickly recognized the value of having Professor
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 296: The Future for a White Wolf
I stood before the locked White Wolf book, a sense of determination washed over me.This was the moment I had been waiting for—a chance to unlock the secrets hidden within its pages and delve into the mysteries of my life.This book had the ability to tell me more about who I was and what I was meant to do.Suddenly, all the trials and tribulations that I had been through in the past year felt worth it for this moment. I deserved this. I deserved to know who I was.With Alex by my side, I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what was to come. This was no ordinary book—it held the key to unlocking my true potential as the chosen White Wolf."Are you ready?" Alex asked, his voice filled with anticipation.I nodded, my heart pounding with excitement."You've got this, Shana," he said, his voice filled with confidence. "You were born for this moment.""Let's do this."With a steady hand, Alex pricked his finger, drawing a small drop of blood. I did the same, allowing a single tear to f
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 295: The Best Surprise
As I stepped into the grand halls of the palace, I couldn't shake the feeling of anticipation swirling within me.King Alexander had called me here, promising a surprise, and I couldn't help but wonder what it could be.It wasn't unusual for him to call me to the palace, but what he had said over the phone had me nervous."Liam's going to come pick you up to take you to the palace. I have a huge surprise for you," he had said."I hate surprises," I replied, already starting to chew on my bottom lip."Too bad," Alex said and I could practically see the smile that was on his lips. "See you soon!"As I awaited Liam's arrival, my mind raced with nervousness.Surprises were not my forte, especially when they involved King Alexander.He was a wild card and always seemed to be up to no good.Yet, despite my apprehension and hesitation, there was a flicker of excitement building within me.What could Alex have planned for me that needed to be such a secret?When Liam finally arrived, I couldn

A FEW MONTHS LATERThe warm breeze brushed against my skin as I made my way through the palace gardens, the vibrant colors of the flowers blooming all around me.Even though Alex had called the royal gardens overrated, it was my favorite place here.I always found myself walking through the rows and bushes of flowers.It had been a few months since the tumultuous events that had changed the course of our lives, and yet, the memories still felt fresh in my mind.Despite not moving into the palace, I found myself spending more and more time there, drawn by the sense of duty and responsibility that now rested on my shoulders.As King Alexander's right hand, along with Liam, I had taken on a new role within the kingdom, providing support and guidance to the young monarch as he navigated the challenges of ruling a kingdom.The transition hadn't been easy, but together, we had managed to weather the storm, leaning on each other for support as we forged ahead.As White Wolf, I commanded a le

I rushed through the hospital corridors, my heart pounding in my chest as I navigated my way to the room where Lucas and Kendrick were.The sound of my footsteps echoed off the sterile walls, each step bringing me closer to the moment I had been anxiously awaiting.Finally, I reached the door and pushed it open, stepping inside to find Lucas sitting beside his father's bed.Relief flooded through me as I saw Kendrick. His eyes were closed, but I could tell that he was just asleep and not completely unconscious as the machines beeped steadily."Lucas, I'm here," I said softly, crossing the room to stand beside him. "I got your text. How's he doing?"Lucas looked up at me, a grateful smile spreading across his face as he stood up. "Shana? What are you doing here?""What do you mean?" I asked with a frown. "I had to come as soon as I could once I found out he was awake. Are you okay?""I'm so glad you're here," he replied, his voice filled with emotion. He pulled me into a hug and I sque

LUCAS POV "Graduation is almost here and I want to go to Hawking University to play hockey. It's what I've always wanted," I continued, hoping my father could finally understand things from my point of view.But my father's expression darkened, a shadow of disappointment crossing his features as he shook his head slowly."Lucas, I've spent my life building this company," he said, his voice tinged with frustration. "I thought I could count on you to carry on the legacy."I couldn't help feeling a surge of guilt wash over me as I struggled to find the right words to express my feelings."I appreciate your confidence in me, father," I replied, my voice trembling slightly. "It's been difficult navigating everything since you've been gone, but I feel as though I was able to handle it because of everything you've taught me. But having this experience, I'm not sure if I'm fully ready to commit to such a big responsibility."My father listened as I poured out my heart, his expression unreada
The Hockey Alpha was My Childhood Sweetheart #Chapter 291: Awake and Healthy
LUCAS POV My phone rang with an unfamiliar number, and my heart skipped a beat as I answered it, the anticipation clawing at the edges of my mind.I had gotten used to answering unknown callers over the past few weeks ever since I took over the business for my father. He got far more calls than I imagined, and many of them were scammers trying to steal information from him.I was already exhausted, ready to go home for the day. I didn't want to deal with any more problems today, and that included talking to a stranger on the phone that just wanted to play games with me."Hello?" I said, my voice tight with apprehension."L-Lucas?" came the hesitant voice on the other end of the line. The voice cleared. "Hello, is this Lucas Busch?""This is he," I replied, ready to give this person a piece of my mind. "Is there something I can help you with?""Yes, I'm your father's doctor and I have some news to share with you."I stilled, hearing the words, hoping that it wasn't a prank.My father
